This is the definitive article: https://www.att.com/support/article/email-support/KM1010523
and it says:
Which matches all of the App specific pages on the support site. So, see if inbound.att.net works.

That's funny... the screen shot I see in the Troubleshoot and Reserve tool you linked to is this:
and it shows "imap.mail.yahoo.com" as the inbound mail server for IMAP, and I find (elsewhere) " imap.mail.att.net" for IMAP and "inbound.att.net" as the server for POP3. In no current setup page do I find "inbound.mail.att.net"
Try it without the "mail." if you use POP3. Try "imap" instead of "inbound" if you're using Imap.
Who knows, they may put it back next month.

Thanks JefferMC!
I'm seeing below at https://ufix.att.com/portal/index.html#Flow/SS_UA_ServiceSelection_Video_Email_Setup_Client/App%20Not%20Listed/b0644c6d-0a11-46ec-b1dc-a1851ef6fb4c
after selecting update email, update existing setup, Desktop, PC, application not listed. (It may be specific to my environment)
(It doesn't address some of the other settings like Secure Password Authentication)
I used the settings in the ***POP table with "My incoming server is a POP3 server"
Is this outdated?
A better source? ATT support?
Thanks again!
John

Thanks for great help JefferMC!
Those settings work.
You pointed me to current source, unlike the ATT troubleshooter.
Of course it re-popped all my mail, apparently duplicated or aliased from defunct server names...
Cheers,
John
